WHY DO HEAVY RIDERS CHOOSE ZIZE BIKES?

Strong Frames

Heavy riders know instinctively that bike frames may be precarious. The key to making a superior bike for our customers is in the frame. We use chrome-moly steel tubing from the aircraft industry, which provides a stronger base than steel or iron, yet retains subtle flexibility and lightness. This alloys kept the bicycle from being too heavy, yet provides a comfortable ride.

Extra Strong Brakes

Remember the little rubber pads attached to the end of the calipers that you’d use to stop a bike? For the heavy rider, that wouldn’t be enough. That’s why Zize Bikes have modern disc brakes instead of standard rim brakes. Whether you use your brakes to stop gently in front of your favorite coffee shop when you’re out for an afternoon ride or for an emergency stop heading downhill, you’ll be able to ride in confidence.

Comfortable, Stable Seats

On any bike the seat is the comfort zone. After thousands of hours of testing and several iterations, we are confident that you will love riding on our wide, padded seats. Because our seat clamps are integrated inside the post, you’ll never worry about a wiggling seat and you can ride with total confidence. Whether you’re meandering on a country lane or negotiating traffic in a city, Zize Bikes saddles meet and exceed the expectations of comfort and stability.

STURDY WHEELS & TIRES MEAN MORE LOVE & MORE SAFETY

For bigger folks, it makes sense that we’re going to need something more than thin tires with low thread counts that seem to get as soon as we climb on the saddle. We created super strong tires that take big people and the bikes they ride through rough terrain and smooth.

Here’s what makes them great:

Our wheels are wide, but not so wide that they can’t fit into most standard forks

Our spokes are 14-15 gauge, the strongest in the industry

We use 36 double-butted stainless steel spokes per wheel

Our tires measure 2.4”, and great for support and stability

Our tires are three times more durable than traditional cruiser bike tires

Our tires have well rounded side walls for ease in handling

The smoothness of our tires creates low rolling resistance

Our inner tubes are sealed with Slime® so it keeps the tires from losing air or getting flats

ABOUT ZIZE BIKES

Started in 2005, this store was created to fulfill a need discovered by Joan Denizot, the owner. A big woman, Joan realized that nobody was making bikes that were safe for a person of her size. She decided that instead of just taking care of herself and having a bicycle custom built, she’d build a store where any person of size could find a strong bike.
